The Clean-up Day effort was being led by the previous City Planner who has <br />since left the City, a previous memo on Clean-up Day is attached for Council’s reference. <br />Council’s direction at the time was to postpone a Clean-up Day as it was not clear how COVID- <br />19 would impact the event. <br /> <br />The discussion this evening is meant to be very preliminary, but Staff is seeking direction on <br />whether or not Council would like to consider an event in the fall of 2021. If Council wants <br />Staff to move forward, more information will be brought forward to Council for future <br />discussion. However, given staffing resources and previous options presented by Planning Staff, <br />Staff would likely recommend utilizing Green Lights Recycling in Blaine, similar to the cities of <br />Blaine, Anoka, Fridley and Spring Lake Park. Staff will give an update on recycling duties as a <br />whole. <br />Budget Impact <br />The City currently has $21,000 budgeted for a Clean-up Day event which is offset by $8,180 <br />budgeted for receipts collected during the event for a net cost of $12,820 to the City. Any future <br />event may impact the budget depending on if it is more or less than the budgeted amount. <br />Attachment <br />Attachment A: June 8, 2020 Memo on Clean-up Day
